Question about coreplayer

KilZone

But based on your logic couldnt I just say disable the QTV driver in core player to make it perform better. In the advanced options there is the TYNT II driver. If i disable it before gfxboost is enabled i get poor performance if I enable it i get significantly better performance because its utilizing the QTV. But would gfxboost utilizes QTV better than coreplayer's "solution"? I dont have my device at the moment to try it. But if anyone could mix and match I would appreciate it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] KilZone:
Though I haven't tried, disabling QTV in CorePlayer should indeed increase performance if you are using GfxBoost.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kauka187:
I just tried it on my HD running Duttys Leo R2 and playback on coreplayer using directdraw instead of Qtv was horribly laggy.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dougi:
for myself , using last energy leo ROM and nothing is showing in the start menu, can't enable it...

Any ideas...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Crescendo Xenomorph:
Another issue: When it's in enabled-active state, I can't do any phone calls... Since the internal speaker is muted for unknown reason. Loudspeaker is muted as well... So the other party can hear me but I can't hear them. But when I disable it, all my calls back to normal.

Strange, but I tried to HR my device (i-Mate ULTIMATE 9502, CPU: MSM7200), install Neo's DriverPack3 and GFXBoost 1.2, and the problem still persist...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dougi:

Memory problems

Hi Chainfire

I have a Touch Pro2 (as per signature) and used your GfxBoost. I am sorry to say that the software caused the memory usage, even after boot, to go up by 10-15%, to the extent that the device became unusable and Opera and other large programmes became unstable and gave memory errors. I do think that the software made some difference to the display graphics but not so much that it's worth having lots of problems in general use of the device.

The problems arose within the gwes.exe process, which started to use as much as 40 meg of RAM. If you are able to produce a version that uses significantly less memory, then I'm sure many more users would benefit.

Many thanks

andrew-in-woking
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] freewind29:
Looks great, will try this soon, thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ace10134:
Maybe its not compatible with the Touch Pro 2??

I´ve just installed the cab in HTC HD, run the app an enable it, then if I quit the app, run it again,it seems disable.

Does this app has to be always running in background?

I read more people have this problem, any ideas?

Thks.

Many thanks Chainfire.

Hardware issue

Hi ace10134

Yep, almost certainly related to hardware inside the HTC TP2. It does work much better and gives more significant benefits on the HTC Tytn II.

Cheers

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
This will do nothing useful... Omnia is NOT an MSM7K based device, I would strongly recommend against installing GfxBoost on it.

EDIT: This is a quote to a post that refers to a post about Omnia, I know it looks weird. DONT USE ON OMNIA !
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] felixdd:
I had given up on this for along time. My Toshiba G810 is too slow for my liking -- youtube stutters, opera stutters...hell even pie stutters.

i'm trying to upgrade from 1.1 to 1.2 but i keep getting an error: "The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions"

got the latest MaryOne ROM running,, it had the 1.1. included.. (MaryOne X0.04 Build 23502 COM5 Leo 1.43 [05.11.09])

i disabled gfxboost in the program,, sense/tf3d are not running.. even rebooted withoud loading again these things.. but keeps on comming..

It also doesn't show up in the program list so i can delete it.. (anyway I can delete these "stock" apps in the rom?)

anyway to fix this ?? something in the register?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bilow:
how can i delete it (v1.1)? i had it coming with the newest MaryOne rom..

now i cant install 1.2 because i cant stop the service of 1.1 (eventough i disable it in the program menu). I get the message that the program doesn't have sufficient system permissions; so i'm guessing the service is still running eventough it doesn't do anything because it's disabled..

it also isn't listed in the list of deleting the program..

EnergyROM WM6.5 with HTC Sense

Hello All,

I have a question, does GFXBoost also work if you run EnergyROM WM 6.5 with HTC Sense, or does it only have effect when you use it with your original rom?

Thanx in advance
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ace10134:
It should work with custom ROM's too, I would believe. The only case it wouldn't work on a custom ROM is if it was already cooked in! But NRG doesn't cook it in, so go and try it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dhatch93:

It seems to me that it breaks the playback of FLV in Coreplayer in my Xperia.

I disable the service, uninstall then softreset.

and the the FLV playback is working.

Is this a known issue or some setting to play around?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gilbenl:
Not sure if it's been mentioned, but this cab does wonders for the HTC imagio. Installed properly on first attempt, although soft-reset is required on this particular device. TF3D, Opera, and especially GoogleMaps are all benefited. Streetview on googlemaps HAULS. Thanks for the work!

After soft reset manila homescreen disappeared (clock etc) :eek:

Maybe it's some side effect with MaxManila?

Then I disabled GfxBoost, disabled and re-enabled HTC Sense, and now I'm happy :D Everything works again.

So far only tested Google Maps, and there's a great improvement in responsiveness.

GfxBoost v1.2 - Service

Hi,

I am a new WM user, and have an HTC HD. I picked up the GfxBoost v1.2, but did not see any noticeable difference in graphics perf. .

I want to know what should I be looking for, if I am to be happy enabling it ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] matejdro:
Can this app cause slowdowns or freezes?

I remember there were freezes and slowdowns when i installed it some time ago, but i installed it rigth after flashing so it could be ROM fault.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Ximo F. Verde:
Tried Gfx 1.2 on my TD2, after installing Neos2007's Driverpack_signed_2010.cab. I have to say that ive seen no visible improve on sense nor on any other app ive tried. Reason im writing is because some users earlier stated that the saw a big improvement on GMaps, especially street view which greatly interests me. Using the latest stock ROM, i come to the conclusion that there was nothing more that the driver pack or Gfxboost could do to help the situation that was not done by HTC's latest drivers on the ROM. Or was it? Watching youtube videos with HTC app, i have to say that im impressed with the excellent quality (and studder-free, if the whole video is dowloaded) and even though im not mixing different drivers and graphic invironments in my mind (2D, 3D, video decoding etc) it seems that the MSM7xxx could be capable of more than what it appears to be.. Could it be something i didnt do correct? Everything was in complaince with the Fxxxxxin Manual, so i guess not. Anyway, sorry for blathering, just giving an opinion if thats any use to anyone..

Thanx for all ur time n skills applied devs

speed boost

Hi all,

just writing my experience with this app.

It works awesomely using a HTC TP2 (T7381) on energyrom (im using dec 13th, 29005 cht v2.0) but I usually disable sense and use titanium and a 3 grid start menu.

My experience was install the neos2007 driver pack 3, then tweak the registry a little with these settings (not sure of the exact values, i keep changing them to test but they are between 2-8mb different to what I use).

I found the info at:

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=File:HTC_Rhodium.png

The values I use are:

HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\HTC\MemoryRequired_ByAP

Default Value: 0

New Value: 524288

HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\HTC\HTCMenus\EnableVSync

Default Value: 0

New Value: 1

HKEY_Local_Machine\Drivers\Display\VMMaxHeapSize

Default Value: 16777216

New Value: 33554432 (I did this but about x4, still playing with it)

Then I installed gfxboost v1.2 and tested the changes with TestOpenGL and the results were significantly better (about a thousand higher approximately, they can vary sometimes and it is best to test, reboot and test again)

I know it's a little off-topic, but I hope this info helps others.

-Techkit

Merry Christmas

:D

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Cryonic90:
I get the message when I want to enable the app. I tried different ways of installing/enabling. With/without TF2D enabled, with/without softreset. All give the same error message with the runtime error.

edit: v0.6 works perfectly :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
Stock ROM? You probably need to app unlock. I'm not sure if the older MSM7500 devices have QTV, though (they are capable, but I suspect they are missing the drivers).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sipospeter:
starts to get interesting. now it says:

"Library not found: ConcurrenceMgr.dll"

can this really be because of the rom i use (pcarvalho's wm6.5 build 21501)? any solutions for this?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
It's probably the ROM yes. I'm not sure if the QTV stuff ever got properly ported to Polaris - though copying the relevant registry entries and files from the Kaiser has some chance of working. These two devices are very very close to eachother, more than most other MSM7K's.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sipospeter:
thanks for the reply. i'll follow the thread anyway, and hope that some miracle will happen later, as other people already wrote that they could get it to wok on a polaris.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] draxredd:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fards:
I'm surprised a lot of things don't work on that rom then, as CCM is hooked by quite a few things I think..

@ chainfire;

superbly done, I've found one vid I recorded on my x1 not play too well, but it seems that file only like some versions of qtv over others, and not the version I've got in the current rom...

Otherwise vid playback is much better, everyone who has a current gen device should have this installed and running..

I've a suggestion, is it possible to get it running as a service?

then you could hide the running icon and couldn't kill it accidentally.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TITAN-23:
Hi,

I am very happy with this app. A huge difference on 2d smoothness. I wonder why a app like this is not included in stock roms.

I was wondering if GfxBoost had any negative effects such as battery life and CPU usage?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sipospeter:
strange... until now i didn't find any application that couldn't run on my device with this rom. it seems that gfxboost is an exclusive one. :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dredd67:
Since you'll likely use your device more often for playing vids and games, of course it will have a strong impact on your battery life :D

@chainfire: just to clear things for me, did the discussion on the other topic here helped you in some ways? I'm trying to understand what has actually generated the "Eureka" in you ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
CCM is indeed used by several programs, however, ConcurrenceMgr is usually loaded dynamically. This is however only possible if you are content with just 'stealing' QTV. This is not an option for GfxBoost as it would lose the acceleration when another app needs it, and has no way of knowing when it is "safe" to steal it back.

As stated in the opening thread, it will eventually become a service, yes.

Just to confirm, this works fine on your X1? Custom ROM or stock?

As of yet unknown. I don't think so, actually.

Yes, that thread was the inspiration :) See first post, it has a comment about it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JackTheJacker:
No, currently i use the Onyx 6.5 Rom...any possibility to install the drivers?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] DMAND:
Running the same ROM here and I too dont notice much improvement, maybe this is because M2D in this ROM already runs pretty smooth compared to other ROMs ???

I was thinking then that with this app that it would be as smooth as butter, but dont see any improvement, so maybe its something missing in the ROM?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
You may be able to port them if you can find an MSM7500 device that has the drivers. I guarantee it will be a frustrating experience though, if you can pull it off.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
Try scrolling the bottom bar in M2D really fast both when GfxBoost is and isn't running - there should be a noticable difference there.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Xeon:
I did install the application and it really makes opera faster. However I really hope we can break the barrier soon and get the full 2D/3D experience we expected when buying this device.

Keep up the good work, congrats.

Noob Question

guys this is the first time I used this program. tell me if its just me, everytime I click on the program it shows that the enable button is not clicked eventhough I enabled it already?does this run automatically on startup since I hav eit enabled?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
Could be... what does it say when you press Enable? "Enabled (Active)" or "Enabled (Overruled)" ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
As the program says at the bottom, you need to keep it running. It does not auto-start etc. It will in the future, this is a test-version.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fards:
sorry missed the bit about the service..

yes it's fine on the X1 using custom Itjes latest (touch-it 7.2) beta rom.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] DMAND:
"Enabled (Active)" only time I've seen overrulled is when playing a video in HTC album hitting the end call key and switching to Gfxboost
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Mikulec:
Damn, its true. I thought softreset is causing to disable he app, but:

Open the app - click enable (after aproximately 1 sec. it show that its enabled) - click exit - open the app again and its showing that its disabled

Version 0,5

EDIT: do I have to keep the app running in the backgroud?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
Strange. Unfortunately, GfxBoost does its thing but has no way to detect if the resulting acceleration actually happens :( So I guess for some reason the acceleration is simply not activated for you.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
Yes, you do NOT want to exit the application! Its actually written on the program screen in bold!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Mikulec:
8 hours in work and I am blind, sorry for that.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] DMAND:
Thanks for the app any way, will try it on another ROM soon, apparently this ROM runs to quote "Polaris 3.19/1.31 OEMDrivers mixture for best of both worlds" dont know if that has any bearing on things.

I've asked other users of this ROM to comment in the Thread for 3LIT3
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FlorentG:
\o/ The Runtime error 216 I had this morning has disappeared with the new 0.6 on my Kaiser. Thank you so much !

I can confirm (no placebo effect) that FinalBurn (arcade emulator) benefits from this.

I tried to play DoDonPachi, enabling and disabling GfxBoost while in game, and there's definitely an improvement when enabled. You can notice that everything is smoother.

And I double-confirm the "smoother-but-not-fps-increase." The speed of the game is exactly the same, just more frames are displayed.

So you can add "FinalBurn 0.011" to the "feels the love" list :cool:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] akp99:
Go to task manager in apps, left click (long select) then add exclusive. And yup.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TITAN-23:

Selecting Coreplayer's QTV option slows it down. Select DirectDraw

Menu > Tools > Preferences > Video > Video output = DirectDraw

P.S.

Make sure GfxBoost is enabled and running. Do not exit Gfxboost.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] babijoee:
i've already done that... but the video is obviously to me alot worse... do i need to disable Qtv Display tytnII driver mode and what device are you using?

Edit: Chainfire: what settings and version of coreplayer are you using???

i'm using 1.3.2 build 6909
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
You can hide it from task manager as shown before, but you SHOULD NOT DO THIS. Same with the shortcut - yes, it will launch the app, but it will NOT enable the acceleration. Please wait for service version.

Seems dependant on CorePlayer version and settings - keep in mind the CorePlayer guys did quite a bit of hacking themselves. It may simple just not work with your CorePlayer / device / ROM / hair-life combination.
